Proudly he stood tall and smiling as Speedy giggled at his little jokes. His tail rotating happily at a job well done in lightening the mood, even if it was only briefly before diving into the more... serious conversation that followed. At least he gave her a moment of reprieve, and preferably, she would think of the previous joy he had brought to the table than the bear and latch onto it. I think he is just fine too. If that helped her at all.

At least they started on a good note and she wasn't too distracted by the bear to let his humor slide off her like water on a duck's back. Maybe it was enough to give some sort of security blanket to cling onto. 

Of course, Orlaith didn't talk to Speedy at all about any of this, even less so before vanishing across the great beyond the borders. She was proving to be a real thorn in his side. Why was he to explain the symptoms that she barely even took notice of enough to describe to him? He sighed, trying to steady himself at the moment. With a calmer tone, he continued. We believe it is a possible threat and wish to deal with it soon. The cat was out of the bag now. Speedy would know of this soon enough anyway.

By her account, the thing chased them for days, and to me, it sounds doesn't sound like normal bear behavior. Neither of them was bitten, she didn't mention any foaming... which would have been pretty obvious and maybe the biggest redflag for her to remember. In her words the ursine was 'off'. That it didn't seem hungry, just angry. What do you think of this?
